Looks awesome. I wonder where the idea of the hi-lift jack cut outs came from?

You know, I honestly don't recall. I was finishing up with the steel bedrail/frame assembly and just thought it would be a good spot. Used them on jeeps, and thought if I could pack one, it might come in handy.

On another note, I'm glad everyone liked the pics. Oh - and the stripper / tease comments cracked me up!!

That's awesome, Adam! We've been waiting for those pics for a while.... Looks like they did a great job at the LineX place.

They really did. But I do have to tell you that I've gotten more compliments on those bumpers than I can count! I'm passing along your name and website almost daily!! They really came out exactly like what I needed. Thanks again, Evan!

Adam, I found a great deal on a 2010 CTD that was beat to heck from hail. (golf ball inspired CTD!)

seeing your project almost makes me want to buy this truck and take on a similar project....

but I won't, no time really. Congrats again on the truck and the new addition to your family!

That turned out awesome man! It looks better than I thought it would and I was thinking it would be good.
On a side note, did they keep track of how much coating it took and/or how much it weighs? I was curious how much weight it adds to the truck.

Wow Adam, I have been watching this thread for a while. Your truck looks amazing! Have you thought about putting the Night Runner headlights in? Tinting the tails etc? To match the rest of the black.

Just checking in on this thread, hope all is well with you and your family Adam. I can only imagine how many gawkers you have staring at that truck of yours. Let us know when and what the next phase of your project rock is.

Sorry for being silent for a while, guys! Been super busy with family and such. I will get those daytime pics up ASAP. So sorry! And yes, the gawkers are innumerous! Can't hardly get anything done when I need to run errands in town!

Thanks again for all the positive comments! Noah loves to see them!!

Another tease!!!

J/K Adam, I know how busy family life is this time of year. Seems like I need about 28 hours a day and 8 days a week right now to get everything in that I need to.

So now that you have driven it for a while, and all the changes you made, how does it handle?
